We played other nerd shit like wizard poker. What is wizard poker? D&D is actually my first real nerdy game ever. I started playing a few years ago and now I'm trying to get my other friends into it becauss I missed it so much. But I don't have an xbox or playstation or anything, so I never really played anything else. Any tips of what should I start with if I ever do?

Oh lawdy I love Magic the Gathering and DnD, and I recently joined a ladies' tabletop rpg group in hopes of getting back into it when I've got more free time. My phone case is currently a clear thing with a particularly sexy swamp land card stuck in the back. My character in my last DnD campaign was a dwarven cleric, an accountant who worked in the financial sector of the capitol city. She stumbled upon some corruption that was literal heresy in their gold-centric religion, but when she tried to turn the embezzlers in to the authorities, she was "reassigned" to a remote, dangerous village. Most of her roleplay involved her struggling to recon with her fanatic patriotism. She was so much fun to play. After a while she just went full psychotic zero-tolerance Law and Order. I basically tried to take the driest possible start for a character (can't get much drier than an accountant, amirite?) and make her interesting. The group was fun too. My ex was the DM, so we hosted. Every gathering we would pick the "player of the day" and I'd cook meal themed around their character. For mine, a fine Dwarven root vegetable pie with mushroom gravy, with fine stout and dark bread. DaredevilDev , my advice to any new DM is don't bite off more than you can chew. My ex tried to do a homebrew campaign for his first game, and everyone ended up frustrated. He got frustrated when we went a direction that he hadn't fleshed out, and we got frustrated when he was disorganized and defensive about the material. Relax, start simple, and build up your on-the-fly bullshitting skills. You have one speed, and that's hardcore!

Yeah, my first game is tomorrow and I'm a little nervous but I've been doing my research and taking advice from a lot of people (many said the same about keeping it simple) so I think we're goimg to be okay! I'll let ya'll know how it went 😊
